BAD RELIGION

- The Lie Lyrics

How do you know what you can be
if you can't see where you are going
What breaks the silence Misery
Can make you see where you belong
It's a dangerous stage but the show must go on

Why do you lie
Why do you lie
Would you betray your soul
Why do you lie
Why do you lie
Don't let your weakness show
You just might be the last to know

Freedom is such a loaded word
So full of hurt and such a plomb
Loneliness saunters in its breeze
Like a disease it drags along
The time of your life can't be had for a song
Why do you lie
Why do you lie
Would you betray your soul
Why do you lie
Why do you lie
Don't let your weakness show
You just might be the last to know

Why do you lie
Why do you lie
Would you betray your soul
Why do you lie
Why do you lie
Don't let your weakness show
Why do you lie
Why do you lie
Only the meek follow
Why do you lie
Why do you lie
Trample the fear below
You just might be the last to know

What is the meaning behind The Lie lyrics?


When we dive into the story the lyrics are telling, Bad Religion's 'The Lie' is an exploration of the internal battle and the fear of being the last one to notice one's own self-betrayal; it is about authenticity in a world that usually keeps telling people to be something else. The lie lyrics mainly convey the feelings of angst, reflection, despair, empowerment, and anger. Besides, the song highlights the necessity of self-discovery and the guidance that accompanies it, lies and honesty, freedom and solitude, and finally, the practice of patience in spite of trials and tribulations. The lyrics encompass betrayal, cowardice, and deceitful scenarios, which sound more advanced and intricate endings. The choice of words is powerful, and although the topics are not explicit, they still cover -often emotional- psychological struggles that might be better perceived by the elder ones. The force of the topics and the constant questioning are indicative of a kind of emotional richness associated with a PG-13 rating.
